Unawatuna

Today is the day we get our own Tuktuk for the next 23 days! Little excitement and stress from our side as we both never drove a Tuktuk before…
The driving lesson went well though and after 20 minutes of practice off we went (2 Danish guys comforted us, as they did the exact same route and were super happy!).

So, the journey of 160km (which took us more than 6 hours) to Unawatuna began. We drove through Colombo (the capital city), there are a lot of people, scooters, Tuktuk, cars and buses, it’s pure chaos but we like it! Everyone is honking and somehow it works totally fine!

We arrived just before sunset in our hotel in Unawatuna for the next 4 nights: Milkyway resort- a hotel in the middle of nature with monkeys, varans, birds, fireflies at night… and unfortunately a lot of garbage.

In Unawatuna, we snorkeled with turtles, ate at Hotels (local Sri Lankan restaurants), and enjoyed the different beaches close by.

We did a day trip to Galle- a fortified old city and watched a part of a cricket game (Sri Lanka - Australia) which was a lot of fun… and sun 😅Baca lagi
